Love all the examples folks have posted so far. I forgot how many “relevant” old time collectors we have. I completely agree with most, that if the collector/player is well known it helps somewhat.
Haven’t seen any David Hall T206 cards posted yet. Curious if T206 collectors put a premium on his stuff.

I think I have a few from the Lionel Carter collection but I'm still holding out for the elusive "Leon Luckey Collection" flips. Probably not much chance of me getting a McNall/Gretzky flip.

For me, just having Whitey Ford cards that "The Chairman of the Board" (and my fellow Astoria home-towner) actually owned/touched would be frickin' cool.

I voted for it simply because there are pedigrees that matter. I know I have paid a little extra for something from a famous collector's collection.
![]() I'd like to get the pedigree on the holder some day. It's Burdick, in case you didn't know.

That’s way cool. The majority of his collection is in the Met.

I also have one with no idea who Dan Fox is or was?
I did some research thinking I'd likely find something, but IIRC, I came up blank?

I can see how it might be cool for the Fords or Williams above, when it is from the players estate or similar and is a connection to the player. For a player collector, that makes some sense to me.
Another collector, I tend to find a little silly. I don't care who owned a card before I did and I can't understand why I should. I throw the slip away when I get these holders and the 'provenance' is destroyed. That Collector X, Y or Z owned Card 1 before I did doesn't impact card 1 at all, it is either authentic or not and is in the condition that it is in. It is not more or less because of which of us dorks owned it. |

Some of these other old-time advanced collectors were putting high grade sets together 40-60 years ago. There wasn’t a lot of money being thrown around, so to get it from one of them (and you can prove it) means there’s less of a chance that it’s been altered. Even cards that are in holders have slipped through PSA, SGC and others. It’s always nice to get the cards from an original owner. With today’s technology they can slip through grading companies as has been mentioned numerous times on this forum. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

None of my PSA slabs have a provenance designation. I just made a note to myself, and if/when it's time for a new owner, they can check the AH archive.
